Pure Beeswax Tea Light Candles (12 pieces, Standard size, 3-4 hour Burn Time), Natural color Standard TL burns 3-4 hours (each) if burned continuously - may not burn fully or as long if interrupted and re-lit or if wick altered or disturbed. Burn in plastic cup, provided, and on or in a proper candle holder. Burn control tab (metal tab at base that holds wick upright) ensures full burn. Do not disturb or move once the wax is liquefied as the wick may shift to the edge and cause the cup to melt and/or burn. Highly filtered beeswax burns cleanly, consistently and completely. Pure cotton wick, no metals. Handmade with care. Beeswax is natural and non-toxic, renewable and ecologically sustainable, and makes the world's best candles. Beeswax makes negative ions as it burns that clean the air of pollutants, allergens, irritants, toxins and odors. Burn either out on a candle plate or contained in a holder.
